The Demon's Angelic Love

In the deepest and darkest Hell, a place where no light could penetrate, letting darkness be the sole ruler of the home of demons, someone furrowed his brows as he concentrated all his thoughts. Sitting on his throne, he even clenched his fists to gather the strength within him.

In another dimension, his power clashed with another force no less powerful than him. The black power clashed with the white power, and it tried hard to push back the white power that also didn't want to back down.

Sweat started to build up on his forehead as he continued to push his strength with all his might, but he paid no heed to it. He didn't want his focus to be distracted by such trivial matters.

He knew that if he lost focus even for a second, the annoying white power would be able to overpower him. This was not the first time he had fought with that power, and he knew that it was still as strong as ever.

"You don't want to back down, huh? Why do you want to beat me so badly?" He gritted his teeth in annoyance as he continued to strive to defeat the white power.

The white power continuously clashed with the black power. The white one tried to dominate the dimension they were fighting in. At first glance, the battle seemed almost even, but on closer inspection, the white power was slightly stronger.

The black and white power kept pushing each other as neither of them was willing to admit defeat until finally, the white power managed to break through the black power's defense. Indeed. The white power was more powerful than the black one.

The black power gradually evaporated from the dimension, and the white power finally became the only power that existed in the dimension.

The man's body felt like it was being pushed by an invisible force from another dimension as his black power was overpowered by white power.

That man was Lucifer, the King of Hell who usually appeared so mighty and invincible. No one dared to challenge the ruler of Hell except 'that someone,' and 'that someone' not only managed to become a match for him, but 'that someone' had also managed to defeat him.

Right now, in the empty hall where he was the only one present, his appearance looked quite messy after his power was defeated by his opponent's. It was an embarrassing loss for him, but fortunately, his subordinates weren't with him at this time.

No one witnessed how the mighty Lucifer was defeated by his archenemy in a fierce battle.

His breath was uneven, and he used his right hand to hold his chest as if the chest just received a heavy blow from the other power.

"You really won't let me win, huh? You even managed to push my power out of his body completely? I shouldn't have taken you lightly."

Lucifer admitted defeat, but he was still laughing as if he had just won the vicious battle. Even when he had completely lost control of the owner of the dimension where he had fought earlier, he was still laughing so hard that laughter echoed in the great hall.

He was alone in the big hall, but his laughter alone was enough to fill up the void inside the hall.

No one would dare to enter the hall when the terrifying laughter dominated the grand room. The other demons outside the hall probably could hear the series of laughter, but they wouldn't dare to barge in if they didn't want to end up dying.

They didn't know what the king was doing, but they didn't dare to question it at all. In the end, all the guards outside the room continued to put on stoic expressions despite having questions on their minds.

Lucifer's laughter finally died down, and the king tried to control his raging breathing. He then placed his elbow on the armrest before resting his cheeks on his palms. His bloody eyes stared at the void in front of him, and his forehead creased once more.

"I have no control over that boy now, and it's partly because of that useless demon again. How should I give him a lesson this time?" Lucifer was talking to himself when he was able to control his emotion.

All he wanted to do was gain complete control over the human, but a disturbing white power dared to spoil his plans and personally challenged his black power. The attack from the white power was not the first time, but this time, the white power managed to completely repel his power.

"The situation has become like this, but it's getting interesting. I'll admit defeat for now, but I won't give up. You can enjoy your winning for now, but I'm sure you won't be able to enjoy your victory for too long. Just wait for my revenge."

Lucifer smirked as he lifted his head from his palm.

"Now let's hear the report from my dear Orgonel," he added as he closed his eyes and concentrated his power once again. "Come back to the Hall of Darkness again, Orgonel. I want to hear your report."

He just summoned his subordinate using the telepathy power, and in the blink of an eye, the long-haired demon appeared right in the middle of the grande hall.

Lucifer had the power to summon his subordinates whenever he wanted. He didn't even need to use a lot of powers to do that, so even though he had just lost a lot of his strength, he was still able to summon his subordinates.

Just with a call to the names, the ones who were called would immediately appear before his eyes.

Orgonel was shocked by the sudden summon, and he furrowed his brows at the King of Hell. Then he noticed something was not right with his Lord.

"What happened to you, My Lord? Why do you look so disheveled and drained?" Orgonel questioned the king in panic, but Lucifer just raised his hand to stop his trusted subordinate's ramble.

"I just lost control over the boy, but it's okay," the king replied to the question in a slightly irritated tone. He had to admit his defeat, and it hurt his pride.

Lucifer had answered the question, but it didn't satisfy the subordinate. "What do you mean, My Lord?" Instead, he asked another question. "Who is the boy you were talking about? Is it Azren?"

Hearing another question coming from his subordinate, Lucifer groaned in annoyance. "Do you think I must answer your question? You just have to accept what I give you! Do you think you have the right to ask for more?"

Lucifer was in a very bad mood after the defeat, and that was why he was easily offended by the words of his subordinate.

Meanwhile, Orgonel was slightly taken aback by the Lord's sudden snap. "My apologies, My Lord. I won't question you any further."

The King of Hell rolled his red eyes. Orgonel was usually composed and listened to him well, but the long-haired demon suddenly dared to pry on the matters he didn't want to talk to.

"Enough with the nonsense and just start your report about Azren. How come you let him neglect the jobs I gave him?"

Actually, Lucifer didn't need to hear reports from his subordinate because he knew everything that happened in the human world. It could be said that he had invisible eyes to monitor the human world. Thus, he didn't need someone to report to him if he wanted to know the things that happened there.

However, he still asked Orgonel because he wanted to test the long-haired demon.

"My apologies, My Lord," the long-haired demon bowed his body as he muttered another apology. "Azren is quite stubborn lately. I have reminded him about the mission, but he always said that he has a way to complete his mission. I didn't expect that he would go that far with that human."

The king smirked after hearing his subordinate's defense. "You didn't expect him to go that far? You mean, something like this?" He questioned his subordinate before swinging his hand towards the ceiling of the hall.

A moving image appeared directly above Orgonel's head, making the owner of the long hair stare at the image in surprise.

The moving image showed how Azren hugged a silver-haired boy tightly while muttering words of comfort in the boy's ear.

Orgonel gulped his saliva nervously. "Azren... Azren was going too far, My Lord. I will reprimand him later. I won't let that kind of thing happen again. Please give me a chance to correct my mistake, My lord."

Hearing the pleas of the weaker demon, Lucifer grinned grimly. "Okay. Just do your job correctly after this," he decided. "If you can't do that, then I won't need your existence in this world, Orgonel.. After all, I can do it myself without your help. You know what I meant, don't you?"
